COURSE DESCRIPTION

6th grade Math Advanced

Mathematics 1 Advanced reinforces mathematical concepts and introduces skills that are essential for all students. Concepts, procedures, and vocabulary that students will need in order to be successful in upper-level algebra and geometry courses are introduced and continually practiced. Students begin with division of numbers, fractions, and decimals. They are introduced to exponents, geometric formulas, algebraic concepts, ratios, percentages, and many more topics. We will be working extensively to apply these concepts to real-life situations and explore mathematics thoroughly.

7th Grade Math Advanced

In this Grade 7 Advanced Mathematics course, instructional time should focus on five critical area: (1) solving problems involving scale drawings and informal geometric constructions, and working with two- and three-dimensional shapes to solve problems involving area, surface area, and volume; (2) drawing inferences about populations based on samples; (3) formulating and reasoning about expressions and equations, including modeling an association in bivariate data with a linear equation, and solving linear equations and systems of linear equations; (4) grasping the concept of a function and using functions to describe quantitative relationships; and (5) analyzing two- and three-dimensional space and figures using distance, angle, similarity, and congruence, and understanding and applying the Pythagorean Theorem.

Grading

All assessments will be equally weighted.Homework and practices are formative assessment, therefore should not be averaged in grade.

Dress Code

Shirts Uniform polo shirts with collars, solid black, lime, teal or white with school logo (Available at Ibiley Uniforms)

Black "I am MAC" Arts Department T-shirts, long or short sleeve (Only available through the school)

Please note: The black "I am MAC" shirts will be ordered by the activities office after students order and pay for them through their arts teachers during the first two weeks of school. After that, these T-shirts will be available for purchase throughout the year directly through our website. However, because orders can only be placed based on a minimum of 10 shirts at a time, there may be a delay in receiving shirts ordered after the first two weeks of school. Students may choose to coordinate ordering in groups in order to more easily reach the 10-minimum. The MAC polo shirt remains the principal uniform shirt. Students who do not own "I am MAC" shirts must wear polo shirts until the black T-shirts are received. 

Pants

School-appropriate slacks, jeans or shorts (Please be sure to read the Dress Code below regarding jeans and shorts)

Shoes

Regular Shoes or SneakersNo "Combat" style bootsNo Pajama Shoes or "sock" shoesNo Flip Flops Sweaters and Jackets
